Best Pubs in Shoreditch

I recently visited The Phoenix Pub and decided to try both their chicken pie and burger. It’s not easy to find pubs that excel at both comfort food and classics, but this one delivered. The chicken pie was the star for me. The pastry was flaky and golden, holding up well without going soggy. Inside, the filling was rich, creamy, and packed with tender chicken and vegetables. It tasted homemade, with just the right balance of seasoning. The portion size was generous, and the pie was served hot and fresh, which made a big difference. The burger was equally impressive. The patty was juicy and well-seasoned, cooked perfectly to retain its flavor. The bun held everything together without falling apart, and the toppings were fresh and crisp. I appreciated that they kept things simple – no over-the-top ingredients, just a solid, well-executed burger. The wait staff were friendly and attentive, making sure we were happy with our meals. They even checked on the food’s temperature and quality, which showed they’re serious about customer satisfaction. Overall, The Phoenix offers hearty, well-prepared food in a welcoming atmosphere. Both the chicken pie and burger were excellent, and it’s clear they take pride in serving fresh, comforting dishes. I’ll definitely be back to try more from their menu.

Great little pub with nice food, not too pricey and friendly staff. They were very busy and it was our waiter's first day, think he did incredibly well!
